CROPS DAMAGE ESTIMATE Assessment of damages to corn, soybeans, wheat, pasture/hay and forested area only Assumed the areas under same crops as in year 2007 and 100% planted before flood occurrence Results based on flood affected crops areas, not a measure of the degree of physical ldamage, some of these may recover but to what percentage? Degree of physical damages /recovery of crops will depend upon, Ponding time, Erosion, Partial or total submerge, Saturation period of soils/fields, ld Formation of dense surface crust, Deposition of mud on plants 19

Web Mapping Uncountable information is being produced by governments, universities, companies and individuals. These data can be shared and published to the public very effectively with web-based technologies and web-gis. Google Earth plug-in (web version of Google Earth) was used because of its powerful visualization functionalities, easiness and cost-effectiveness. 30
Google Earth plug-in Released in the end of May, 2008. Most of Google Earth visualization functionalities can be embedded into one s own website. Google Earth plug-in add-on is installed on client computer. Javascript library (GE-API) is provided for customization. Currently support the following OS and browser: -Windows 2000, XP, Vista (IE 6.0+,FireFox2.0+, Flock 1.0+) -Apple Mac OS X 10.4 and higher (Safari 3.1+,Firefox 3.0+) Data is published in KML or KMZ formats. 31
Brief function list Display of background imagery (satellite & aerial) provided by Google Earth Display of predefined layers (terrain, borders, roads and 3D models) Placement of KML, KMZ and 3D models Creation and placement of geometry objects (placemark, line and polygon) Mouse and keyboard event management for customization and user interface 32

CONCLUSIONS Floods Highest recorded rainfall of 10 and average of 4 above normal in June Near historic flood water levels average of about 12 higher than flood stage, lasted for 6 to 8 days Damages in both Wabash and White rivers 93,000 hectares of flood affected area, 67,000 hectares of crops area An average of 15 % damage to both Corn and Soybeans 1080 km of roads length ( different segments) submerged under water, mostly the county roads Knox, Greene and Daviess are worst hit, both in flood affected area and roads damage 6,000 hectares of additional flood affected area beyond the floodplain Data and maps Timely availability on internet ( flood maps) helps to quickly visualize the disaster impact, to plan remedial measures and flood affected area residents can view and assess the amount of flooding and damages to their properties 39
